Product Description

Requires Warcraft III to play - NOT Included

Following in the tradition of previous Blizzard expansion sets, Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne provides gamers with a vast new chapter in the epic Warcraft saga. In the single-player campaign, players revisit the war-torn world of Azeroth. Several months have passed since Archimonde and the Burning Legion were defeated at the battle of Mount Hyjal, yet a new threat has arisen throughout the land.

The evil Lich King Ner'zhul has been imprisoned inside the Icecrown glacier, deep within the arctic continent of Northrend. Although the former Orc Shaman lacks physical form, his soul lives on, forever seeking a means to escape his icy prison. As the saga continues, it is revealed that both the Night Elf renegade, Illidan, and the traitorous Death Knight, Arthas, seek the Icecrown glacier and the mysterious powers found inside. While it is uncertain as to what is being sought inside the icy tomb, players must traverse uncharted lands and battle treacherous new enemies to uncover the schemes of these nefarious beings, and save all of Azeroth from the forces of darkness.

4 out of 5 stars A brilliant expansion pack.   May 22, 2010
James E. F. Iveson (london, england)
This expansion is brilliant.
There are new units, storylines, maps, and cutscenes that take you deeper into the Warcraft universe.
The bonus orc campaign is incredibly fun; I've played it several times and still get as much entertainment out of it (Blizzard wanted to create some kind of orc campaign, but didn't know how to introduce them into the expansion; and they also wanted to make some kind of movement to world of warcraft, so they put two and two together to create a type of role playing campaign where you control only the heroes).
The alliance campaign isn't actually focused on the humans, but the blood elves; who have a slightly darker side revealed to them.
The undead campaign is split between Arthas, champion of the scourge, trying to protect the lich king; and Sylvanas Windrunner, the high elf general (slain by Arthas) who has gained some of her own control due to the waning powers of the lich king, driven to build her own army of free willed undead (like her), to end the reign of the evil lich king.
The one dissapointment I had with this game was that you have to start playing as the night elves to reach the further campaigns; I just despise playing as night elves, I find them too weak and just not as good or fun to play as the other races. I really hate how high and mighty the night elves act over the other races, despite being the most difficult for me to play as (due to the fact that to take out a party of two orc grunts, I needed to rally around seven of the night elf archers).



5 out of 5 stars Very interesting game with a good bonus campain.   May 5, 2010

Rpg style bonus campaign with quests. more tactical than the usual base building and rush. a nice addation to warcraft 3.

5 out of 5 stars Warcraft 3 Expansion   March 19, 2009
Mr. Jacob Welsh (England)
Well this is just one of the games where you would buy it again if you lost it. Which was my case. Fantasic gamplay. Good story that links to world of Warcraft. The online play is immense especially since there is alot of people players maps that they have made on the reasonably easy-to-use editor. Additional units from the original and other changes like being able to create custom units in the editor is a noticeable improvment to an already awesome original. Good job Blizz, keep up the good work!
